Are ads supposed to pop up in such a frequency?
Posted on: 10/19/17 06:55PM

Ads pop up everytime I click a link. A new window opens for the page I am going to and the previous window turns into an ad. Trying to key in a word in search terms? Click on it and get sent to a new page and an ad pops up. Randomly click an open space on the screen, an ad pops up. Try to right click and open a pick in a new window? A new new window opens up. I am all for ads but its getting a little crazy.

To also elaborate, it only happens when you are under posts. There are no adds on any other part of the site and going from post to another section will trigger a new window to pop up and an ad to appear in the old one.

Try turning off any ad-blocking add-ons you may have.

After one or two they should stop.

Check your antivirus to make sure they do not have an integrated adblock solution. If that doesn't work, take a break, eat some pasta, and think about what else could be causing it.

I fixed it. Noscript being noscript and Firefox being firefox

What did noscript do to cause the issue for the many other users who will likely experience what you had?

A certain script i had not enabled yet was still triggering somehow and causing firefox to go apeshit which then let the ad trigger? cause it was on blacklist. So I just enabled said script and told firefox to ignore blocking popups on this site. Standard stuff.
